How to Earn Money on YouTube

How to
Earn Money on YouTube

You’ve probably heard stories about regular
people earning money on YouTube and thought, “Hey, I can do this too!”. While
earning thousands of dollars probably isn’t realistic, you can start earning
money quickly, especially if you have a strong subscriber base. Follow this
guide to get your videos monetized and start earning revenue off of those
YouTube ads.

Steps

1Set up and build your YouTube channel. Your channel is
your personal presence on YouTube. Each YouTube account has one channel
attached to it. A YouTube account is the same as a Google account, and creating a YouTube account will grant you
access to other Google products, such as Gmail and Drive.

·Create your account or use your existing one. Add keywords to help people
find your channel. You can add keywords by navigating to the Advanced section
of your Channel Settings. Make sure that your keywords are relevant to your
content.

·Your user name can also work for or against you. If it’s short, easy to
remember, and original, people will be more apt to remember you. However if you
are using an existing account, you can always change your username by editing
it on your Google+ account.

2Add content. Try to upload
content that is high quality, and isn't super long. (This option can vary
depending on what type of content you decide to upload) Also try to upload
regularly and stay consistent with your uploads.

·Even if your content isn't great at first, keep at it. Practice makes
perfect. Try to make each video better than the last. You will often learn as
you go.

·Improve your content by either using a better camera or trying better
editing software or techniques. Also try to improve the way things are filmed.
Use a tripod, have a friend help you or light your scenes better. It all helps
for a better end product which in turn helps you get a better audience.

·By uploading regularly you can help hold an audience. People are more
likely to subscribe if you add content on regular schedule, and maintain that
schedule as much as possible.

·Make sure to tag your videos with key words that describe the content, as
well as an eye-catching description. These will help drive people to your video
from YouTube searches.

3Gain an audience. Building an audience
is key to increasing your monetization. You need people to watch your ads in
order to make any money off of them. There is no one secret to getting more
subscribers, just make the best content that you can and they will come to you.

·Keep uploading content and try to get people hooked. Send your video out on
Twitter and Facebook. Share it with people. Distribute it elsewhere on the
internet. Subscribers are essential to becoming a partner.

·Interact with your viewers by responding to comments and making occasional
videos directly related to viewer comments and questions. Connecting with your
community will bring more members into that community.

4Monetize your videos. In order to
start earning money on your videos, you’ll need to enable monetization. This
means you are allowing YouTube to place ads in your video. This also means that
you acknowledge that there is no copyrighted material in your video.

·You can monetize a video as it uploads by clicking the Monetization tab and
checking the “Monetize with Ads” box.

·To monetize a video after it has been uploaded, open your Video Manager and
click the “$” sign next to the video that you want to monetize. Check the
“Monetize with Ads” box.

5Setup Google
AdSense. You can setup Google AdSense for free at the AdSense website. Click
the Sign Up Now button to begin creating your account. You must be 18 years or
older to create your own account. If you are younger than that, you will need
an adult to help you.

·You need either PayPal or a bank account and a valid mailing address as
well as other information so AdSense can verify who you are and who to send the
money to. You only gain money per ad click and a smaller amount per view but it
adds up over time. This is why having an audience is key.

6Check your analytics. Once you have
some videos online, monetized, and being viewed, you can check out the
analytics on them to see how they are performing. Click the Analytics option in
your Channel menu. Here you can view estimated earnings, ad performance, video
views, demographics and more.

·Use these tools to see how your content is resonating with your audience.
You can change your content or your marketing if you’re finding that you aren’t
attracting the users that you want to.

7Market your videos elsewhere. Don't put your
videos just on YouTube! Start a blog, make a website or post them on other
video or social media sites. The more views it gets, the better. By sharing the
link or embedding the video on the internet, you are increasing the chance of
it getting noticed.

8Become a YouTube partner. YouTube Partners
are YouTube members who have monetized videos with a large number of viewers.
Partners gain access to more content creation tools, and can win prizes for the
number of viewers they have. Partners also get access to much more community
support and tips.

·You can apply for YouTube partnership at any time through the YouTube
Partner page. In order to gain access to the most powerful Partner programs,
you need to have 15,000 cumulative watch hours for your channel over the last
90 days.
